Note that I have two pair of matched Quad 50CA10 available. The "test NOS" pair is available for $650.

My spare 50CA10 are advertised here. I have two matched quads, one of which may be actually NOS as it tests better than NOS. The "NOS" quad are labeled NEC and the other quad are labeled Luxman.

I have the etracer curves and important parameter values for all of the tubes if interested and can send to you. Tubes look basically brand new.

Matched quads of 50CA10 in this condition rarely come available anywhere in the world.

I also have new very high quality tube sockets for these tubes, quantity = 10.

I would be looking for $650 for the "test NOS" matched quad and $400 for the other matched quad.

And asking $40 for the tube sockets which includes shipping.

Free ship for tubes within USA.
